Thanks gents. I'm glad I picked it up. The fabric is a great weight and hand (as usual when Mike picks them out), and I really like pairing red like this with green and brown.

Normally my tailor complains about how short I want my pants. This time I went about 1/4" longer and asked for a 1 3/4" cuff. Never worn a cuff before, but it seemed appropriate. I hope I like it

Awesome! Post some pictures of these when you can please. I'm trying to decide whether to grab these or the brown mink ones on special order. Get both right haha? Also, I cuff 90% of my trousers, especially the winter/heavy ones, at about 1 3/4" as well (I'm only 5'9", so I don't want the cuff to look too big on me).

I will, but I won't get them back until Monday or so.

Too hard to choose! The mink ones dropped about a week after I put my order in so I didn't have to decide. They're definitely something special and unique. This is my first pair of heavy trousers so I think I would still choose the mocha. The mink blends seem to have something of a coarse/hairy texture to them? I like the mocha color a bit more as well. Would the brown minks be too close in color to a dark brown shoe? The mocha shade is comfortably in between my walnut and brown shoes, so it should work with both.

I'm 5' 10". It's good to hear that someone my height used the same cuff measurement.
